Per Hasselberg

Fellow Swedish artist Per Hasselberg (1850–1894) is shown in his Paris studio where Zorn was a frequent visitor. The sculptor adjusts his model’s pose to make a preparatory study for what would become the sculpture Waterlily. By showing a rarely depicted part of an artist’s working process, Zorn also reveals Hasselberg’s model to a provocative viewpoint.
